Genshin Impact added many fun and fantastic elements to its Sumeru Region. Tri-Lakshana creatures are just one example of this. They are present throughout Sumeru and mimic the Dendro element as a whole in their design. Here are all the Tri-Lakshana Creatures and how to use them as you explore.

All eight Tri-Lakshana Creatures & how to interact with them in Genshin Impact

Tri-Lakshana Creatures are unique in that they typically exist in a normal state, but they can take different forms when either Electro or Pyro are applied.

Applying Electro will put Tri-Lakshana Creatures in an Activated state. Applying Pyro will put them in a Scorched state. Applying Dendro will return them from an Activated or Scorched state to a normal state. When activated, Tri-Lakshana Creatures will emit a Truesense Pulse that can reveal hidden things, like Torch Puzzles.

Here are all the Tri-Lakshana creatures you can find and what they do in each state.
